Brand Overview: The Alba Botanica® brand was born in 1979 and follows a simple mission – to Do Beautiful.

We make botanically-based, 100% vegetarian personal care products that do beautiful for you and your friends: people + animals + earth. The Alba Botanica® brand name must always include the ® directly following it, ideally in superscript (You can add this on an Apple computer by typing Alt-R).
